    "Perfect"
    ... it had one of my favourite actors in it Richard Moll playing Zaleb Carney, who earns his money collecting horse s**t :D I love it!! Richard Moll is best known for his performance as Bull in Night Court but he was seen in many other productions as well. He usually plays some loveable but dumb guy or some strange scientist ...

    Anyways ... actually this episode is not the strongest episode I've seen so far but for the scenes with Richard Moll alone it is worth watching - Zaleb and Ray are simple great together!!

    The story of the episode is fairly decent and interesting, there are some good fight scenes in it and Fraser finds a "new" love interest. In this episode we hardly see Dief at all but he has still one or two moments to shine.

    Overall enjoyable!!moreless

    • Fraser: Oh, would you mind dropping in to my place and checking up on Dief. He's been in the apartment all day. Ray: Oh, great. I can't wait to see what I'll find.

    • Ray: You oughta suck on something. Zaleb: You ought move your foot. Ray: Maybe I don't want to move my foot. Zaleb: But if you don't move your foot, I can't get that horse patty. Ray: Why would you want that horse patty? Zaleb: I'm not telling. Ray: Tell me why you want that horse patty and maybe I'll move my foot. Zaleb: Never. Ray: I'm a cop. Zaleb: So what? Ray: You want to serve time over a piece of manure? Zaleb: I'd rather go to the chair than talk. Ray: You know what I just decided? I just decided that you're so nuts, I'm gonna let you have your patty.

    • Ray Vecchio: Old Zaleb came through for us. He remembers detecting some very subtle changes in the horse manure at a particular plant. Want to hear which one? Does the word 'Barnaby Jones' mean anything to you? Benton Fraser: No matter what you say, you can not base an investigation on a theory developed from the casting of a television series. Ray Vecchio: You're just mad that I was right. Benton Fraser: I'm not mad, it just doesn't make any sense. Ray Vecchio: And putting horse meat on your nose does? Benton Fraser: That was different. Ray Vecchio: You're telling me.

    • Ray Vecchio: I'm going to freeze to death inside my friend Flicka.

    • Ray Vecchio: Your deaf wolf just ate my jelly donut!

    • Ray Vecchio: Some people pass away in their sleep, others die while making love to a beautiful woman. I'm going to die wrapped in meat.
